If you leave Canada before you receive your PR card, you would need to apply for a travel document from the Canadian embassy in your home country to re-enter Canada. This travel document proves your permanent residence status. You cannot re-enter Canada using your immigration visa after you've...

What appears in Canadian address is just the city and province you had named as your destination in your application forms (ex. Toronto, Ontario, or Calgary, Alberta). You will not be asked to provide a Canadian address. E-CAS does not always update though. Some people have received stamped...

You can spend a week in Toronto, before you go Alberta. It is permitted. However, that would mean that you would not be covered by health insurance in this initial period, as Ontario has a 3-month wait period. If you go to Calgary immediately, and apply for the health card, you get coverage...

You can land in Toronto as your point of entry, even if your final destination is in Calgary. No problem there. Your landing formalities will be done in Toronto, and once in Calgary you can apply for health card, SIN, etc. See Qorax's post here...
